I have a red, painful bump on my labia minora that has been getting worse over the past week. It's sometimes itchy and has a dot in the middle, like it's about to burst. I may have accidentally touched my labia after applying an insect repelling lotion. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had the old Mirena coil removed and a new one fitted 7 days ago. I am experiencing heavy bleeding but not painful bleeding. I am due to go on holiday and want to know if it is safe to use additional progesterone (5mg 3 times daily) while on holiday. What do you suggest and is this normal?

Had sex with a friend on February 14th, and she said she is pregnant. Is it possible for her to be pregnant from that encounter, even though I didn't ejaculate inside her and she had bleeding the next day?

I have severe vaginal pain that has persisted for years, despite multiple treatments and doctor visits. The pain is intense and makes any form of vaginal penetration extremely painful. I have had various tests and treatments, including ultrasound, biopsies, and medications like diflucan and flagyl, but with little to no relief. I am concerned about the possibility of an underlying infection or other condition that has not been properly diagnosed. What could be causing my symptoms, and what further tests or treatments should I consider?
